harold Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) We run 2 very strong professional level anti virus software systems concurrently on our servers and they have not detected anything. You may find it is not the web site. Edited July 25, 2016 by harold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foghorn Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 If your running windows get rid of avg and install microsoft security essentials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonywardle Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 What bit did you click on? Nice work reporting it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest123456789 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 You don't even need to click on anything, it can be embedded within the site and execute as soon as you view the page. Cyren is the Daiwa of AV software (no I don't work for them). But nothing is 100% so regular backups are a must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonywardle Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 rereading the first message, it looks like tackleberry is saying that his AV didn't like tinnytraction and he is letting Raiders know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tackleberry Posted July 27, 2016 Author Share Posted July 27, 2016 rereading the first message, it looks like tackleberry is saying that his AV didn't like tinnytraction and he is letting Raiders know thats it .... it was on the google page and as soon as i clicked to have a look the AV window popped up and said the sight was a threat ??????

Ric001 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Hey tackle, some off the shelf software will remove AVG as soon as you insert the cd or usb stick. AVG is OK until you pay for a good pc sevurity anti virus package. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonywardle Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Stick with AVG, its ok if you don't know how to change You might need to borrow an IT nerd from somewhere. I'm one but a bit far away sorry mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrsswordfisherman Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 and i went back to have a look and here it is again virus.PNG Did you add this to favourites at all - the favicon.ico isn't normally a virus as such Use another antivirus or do a malware scan download malwarebytes or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fragmeister Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I think the name favicon.ico is just a way of making it look harmless. My Kasperski and Windows 10 security picked it up as malicious code. Cheers Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Incredible Hull Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Anti virus software picks up a lot of unnecessary things, mostly cause wants you to think it's doing a good job, but its doing a shit one lol You can easily check the logs to see what it detected and google it, most likely its harmless website macro or something. As long as you're not downloading files, or clicking on to any pop-up boxes that appear out of nowhere, then you're fine. If you see a pop up box, just press Alt+F4 to close it. I personally don't run any anti virus software for the last 15 years, never had a problem. Don't open junk mails, executable files or pop ups and you'll never get a virus.
